Do you actually have an Itanium processor?  They were pretty much only  
used in high-end multi-CPU enterprise boxes costing hundreds of  
thousands of dollars.  I'm not sure the majority of ports were ever  
built for ia64, which might be why disk 2 & 3 are so small.

Most people should be going for amd64 images instead, which can also  
be used with Intel EM64T (aka x86-64 or Intel64) CPUs such as P4/Xeon/ 
Core/Core2/Core i5/i7...
